Serving serving

Ingredients

½ cup old-fashion rolled oats, gluten-free or regular
2 large egg white, or ¼ cup of liquid egg whites
½ ripe banana, spotty and brown for extra sweetness
¼ cup milk, I love vanilla unsweetened almond milk
1 tablespoon pure maple syrup
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¼ teaspoon baking powder
¾ teaspoon cinnamon
2 tablespoon chocolate chips, I used Lily’s Dark Chocolate Chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F and lightly grease a single-serve baking dish or ramekin.
Add all ingredients (except for the chocolate chips) to a high-speed blender and blend until fully combined.
Pour the batter into a greased oven-safe ramekin (I used an 8-ounce one) and top with the chocolate chips.
Bake for 18 - 22 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
Let them cool for 5 minutes. Then top with a drizzle of chocolate, peanut butter, or almond butter, if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

Maple Syrup: You can substitute maple syrup with honey or agave syrup.

Old Fashion Rolled Oats: You can use rolled oats or quick oats. Don't use steel-cut oats.

Liquid egg whites. You can also use ¼ cup of liquid egg whites in place of the 2 large egg whites.

Egg Whites. You can swap the egg whites for one whole egg.
